An Error Corrected.

HoPKINsvILLE, KY, Sept. 5.-The
September term of the Circuit Court
opened to-day with the heaviest
docket known since the war, there
being upward of five hundred cases
on the trial docket for this judicial
year, and crime has increased instead
of diminished since the adoption OF
the prohibition law. Indeed this is
not creditable showing for Chris
tian county.
The above special appeared in the
Louisville Commercial aud is calcu-
lated to do much harm to Hopkins
vile, if allowed TO pass without COR
rection. As matter of fact there
are only 80 new cases on the present
docket, all of them civil cases. There
were a few indictments found against
violators of the prohibition law at
the March term of court and these
cases will come up for trial at this
term. But to hold prohibition re-
sponsibe for the unheard cases on
the docket, which have been accumu-
lating for years, is absurd and ridic-
ulous. There are several parties now
in iail TO be indicted for stealing and
other crimes, but prohibition has not
made them criminals. Many indict-
ments will doubtless be found
against the whisky men who are
still defying the law, but these
will be the result of anti-prohibi-
ton and not of prohibition, and if
the petit juries do their duty the
liquor traffic will be utterly destroy
cd in Hopkinsville within the next
thirty days, The records of none of
the courts show that crime has in
creased. There have not been ten
arrests for drunkenness in fOnr
months and that period includes the
days of the dwelling and the recent
circus, when the crowds wero the
largest seen in the city for years.
Last Monday was an important day
in the city. A large crowd was pres
ent and yet there was but little if any
drunkenness. Late in the afternoon
we saw several parties in town as
sober as judge, who we're never
before known to go home on court
day without being beastly drunk.
These men were not in possession OF
the"password"and consequently could
not get liquor to fill up on. The pro-
hibition law is not causing any in
crease of crime, nor do we believe it
is injuring the business of anybody
except liquor dealers.

Twelve Years Of Terrible Torture.

The gentleman who furnished us
with the following certificate was for
years under the treatment of many
physicians, and was dosed with all
sorts of medicine, but without the
least beneficial effects. Now, how he
was finally cured and relieved from
his internal suffering, is forcibly told
in his own statement given below, TO
which we invite the earnest attention
of all sufferers from the same dreadful
aflliction.
II had been tortured sufferer from
articular and sciatic rheumatism for
more than dozen years-up to the
year 1885. l had consulted various
doctors and used mulliform remedies
without relief, or any apparent benz
fit. In 1885 l was taken afresh with
the severest acute symptoms of this
disease, in feet and legs aud hips,
which made me helpless invalid
unable to work or walk or help my
self in any way. l was miserable,
helpless sufferer, and without hope of
ever being cured. | had already eX-
hausted my faith in doctors remedies
and now concluded to take Swift's
Specific as a forlorn hope.
From the use of the first two bot
ties. Ielt greatly benefited, which
encouraged me to continue its use.
steadily improved. The inllamma-
ton left my joints, the sciatica dis
appeared, comfortable feeling was re-
stored, my strength and flesh rein
stated, and by the time l had taken
two dozen bottles all my symptoms
of rheumatism had entirely dis
appeared, and l felt well enough to
resume my regular labors. | felt like
a new man. | cannot attribute my
miraculous and perfect cure TO any
thing but the Swift Specific. l know
that it alone cured me, for nothing
else had done ne any good for twelve
years. [ owe my restoration and
strength for labor and religious duties
alone to this grand remedy, and gladly
make this statement for the benefit of
all sufferers from this most torturing
se-rheumatism.

Goth. In 1874 it did not rain enough
to wet a pocket handkerchief from

the drouthin Hopkinsville has lasted,
with the exception Of one good rain
on Aug. 9th, from June Bird till the
p 'esont time. In other portions Of
the county there have been occasional
showers, but in the western portion
there has been even less rain than we
have had. The present drouth has

The New Charleston.

CHARLESTON, S. c., Sept. 4-The
News and Courier will publish to-
morrow a review of the trade of the
commercial year. A heavy failing
off of cotton receipts is shown, but a
heavy gain in receipts of naval stores
aud domestics is noted. The total
trade is over sixty-siX and a quarter
million dollars, only 100000 less than
in the preceding year, despits the
diminished cotton receipts. The
amount Of the general wholesale and
retail trade, and of manufacturers is
SO, 900. 1000 in excess of the previous
years. The cotton crop will exceed
last years in this state by $1,000
bales corn by 100000 bushels, and
wheat and oats by 100000 bushels
each. The review of the earthquake
work will show that the cost Of re-
building and repairs is s43, 100000, OF
which Charleston spent $33,000,000.
In the past year 5000 buildings have
been rebuilt or repaired and 2,l73
